Problems solved by technology

Further, and more significantly, such a display generally does not allow for anything more than the display of coins in a manner that corresponds to their geographic location.
While a limited amount of information may be provided ancillary to the display, for example, in the borders of the map, there is typically no way to provide a large amount information about the location, event or character that is displayed on the coins.
There is also no way for the collector to record his or her own thoughts, observations or other information about the coins displayed.

Embodiment Construction

[0021]Turning now to the drawings where examples are provided for the purpose of illustration and not by way of limitation, FIG. 1 includes a three-dimensional view of one embodiment of a book 10 that is capable of displaying one or more coins related to its theme. As shown, book 10 includes a front cover 12 and a back cover 14. In the view of FIG. 1, front cover 12 includes two coin receivable apertures 18. These apertures 18 will preferably be sized such that a coin may be pressed inside in a tight fit. Apertures 18 will also preferably have a shield or some other support (either clear or opaque) on one side to prevent coins that are placed inside from falling through and, if opaque, to provide a surface for display of a theme-related image. Front 12 and back 14 covers will preferably, but not necessarily, be made from card stock or some other rigid material. While book 10 is shown here with apertures 18 located in front cover 12, those skilled in the art will appreciate that they...
